Bellevue Kroger Crazy Fox moves forward with restoration project renovations under way Amanda Joeirng Alley ajoering@nky.com

BELLEVUE — Patrons of the Bellevue Kroger store are going to have to find a new grocery shopping option for the next few months. The Bellevue store, located on Donnermeyer Drive, has been closed for renovations since the end of May and the project is expected to take until sometime this fall. Bellevue City Administrator Keith Spoelker said the city is happy to see its only grocery store getting an update. “Having a grocery store is very important to any city,” Spoelker said. “A lot of people in our city, especially our older residents, rely on that store and having it so close.” Rachel Betzler, public relations manager for Kroger, said the more than $5-million project consists of renovating the interior and exterior of the store, moving and expanding some of the de-
partments and adding more variety. Betzler said the store is being updated to look more like what the newer Kroger stores look like. While the new Kroger Marketplace was built a couple years ago nearby in Newport, Betzler said it hasn’t had much of a negative effect on the Bellevue store. “This store has been able to keep its customer traffic, which is one of the reasons we decided to reinvest in it,” Betzler said. While the renovations are being done, patrons of the store will have to go to other nearby grocery stores, including the Riverside Super Value store in Dayton, and Kroger stores in Newport, Cold Spring, Covington and Latonia. The location’s pharmacy is still open, now using the area that formerly housed Fifth Third Bank, which closed in February. Betzler said the bank will not be returning to its former location, opening you more floor space for the store.

NEWPORT — Since they bought the Washington Avenue bar 13 years ago, owners of the Crazy Fox Saloon have been working to renovate the 1880 building. Since then owner Terry Bond and his partner Carl Fox have completed several improvements, from a new roof and gutters to work on the sewer line and electrical system. Now, they are moving forward with the renovation process by putting in a new door and new windows, part of their effort to restore the building back to its original form. “We are working on it slowly but surely,” Fox said. “All the improvements we’ve done so far have paid for themselves because we’re trying not to go into more debt.” Through the years the building has been the home to many businesses, including a grocery store, bakery, beauty parlor, medical office, bars and more. While they have been unable to find pictures of the way the building looked prior to its renovation in the 40s or 50s, Bond said they looked at other local buildings from the same time period to get an idea of what it may have looked like originally. Work on the door, which is now complete, began in May. Fox said they stayed as true as possible to the character of the building, getting door handles, locks and more from the time period. “Our carpenter Brian Barton

Guys n’ Dolls restaurant in Cold Spring closes Landmark will sit vacant again Staff report
COLD SPRING — Guys n’ Dolls Restaurant and Night Club, housed in a 19th-century livery barn on Alexandria Pike, has closed. According to the Guys’ n’ Dolls website, www.guysndollsky.com, the last day of business was June 21. The phone number for Guys n’ Dolls was out

of service on Monday, July 2. “We have had many great times, and enjoyed all of you, and your stories about when you came to Guys n Dolls as a youngster,” reads a note on the website signed by owners Steve Chuke and Jack Eck. Chuke, of Fort Thomas, renovated the building (a landmark in Cold Spring) and reopened it as Guys n’ Dolls in 2009. The building had been operated as a night club by different owners under the Guys and Dolls name in the 1960s and 1970s. In its heyday, it
played host to such stars as Etta James and James Brown. Prior to its most recent incarnation as Guys n’ Dolls, the Cold Spring landmark building went by several other names. Buckskin Bev’s closed in 1999. It was followed by Cold Spring Roadhouse, which closed in 2007, and then the short-lived restaurant Stables. Chuke and Eck bought and renovated the facility in 2009, reopening it as the 1950s-themed nightclub Guys & Dolls. The building, more than 85

years old, was first known as The Plantation Club. Cold Spring Mayor Mark Stoeber said the closing of Guys and Dolls was an “absolute shame.” “The site has such tremendous history I find the venue the building itself to be extremely unique and extremely intriguing and I enjoy being in there,” Stoeber said. The site where Guys and Dolls was located is wonderful with a lake and parking that is accessible directly off of U.S. 27.,

he said. “It just seems to have all the necessary qualities for a successful business, but unfortunately we can’t seem to have one that stays in there,” Stoeber said. “I know Mr. Chuke tried very hard. It certainly seemed that a live entertainment complex would do well conceptually, but unfortunately it doesn’t seem as if it worked out that way. So, it’s an absolute shame and I ‘m looking for the right venue to come in there and just stay.”

has done an extraordinary job coming up with a lot of the detailing for the project,” Bond said. Work on the storefront windows will begin soon and should be complete by the end of October. The new windows will open the bar up, bringing in more natural light and making the bar more approachable, Bond said. “We also think the new windows will improve security,” Fox said. “We’ve had a lot of vandalism over the years, but with the windows being more open we’ll be able to see more of what’s going on outside.” Fox said with the project, they tried to be as green as possible, using reused materials, recycling and more.

Alexandria’s 'short' July 4th parade By Chris Mayhew cmayhew@nky.com
ALEXANDRIA — Each
year a little 4th of July parade pops up in Alexandria as dozens of children march in red, white and blue outfits around about 200 yards of city streets. Kinder Academy presented its fourth annual Independence Day celebration parade at 10:30 a.m. Tuesday, July 3. An audience of parents, aunts and neighbors gathered in spots along the parade route from the academy on Pete Neiser Drive and along Washington
Street almost to Orchard Lane. The idea for the parade started with a patriotic craft of paper hats, said Jessica E. Hehman, director of operations for Kinder Academy. “About four years ago were making 4th of July hats for the kids to take home, and they looked so cute we thought we’d have a parade,” Hehman said. The parade, although short, was a big hit with people from the start, she said. “People came outside of their homes on Washington Street and clapped, “ Heh-
man said. Now, parents line the parade route and cheer their children on and snap pictures, she said. The school-aged children decorate and ride their bicycles to lead the parade, Hehman said. Children in the parade walked down the street, some shouting “U.S.A.” Parent Shannon Sholler of Alexandria said the children love the parade, and it is a nice thing for the academy to do annually. “I took off work to come see it because I think it’s going to be the cutest thing I’ve seen in a long time,”
said Richard Sholler, Shannon’s husband. Kinder Adademy is a full-service child care center serving children age six-weeks-old to schoolage children, Hehaman

Starting with Ron Crouch, a demographer with the Kentucky Education and Workforce Development Cabinet, speakers will outline different aspects of aging. “The conversation will break out into what are
some of the things we have in place, we don’t have in place,” Hyott said. “These are the things we need to think about over the next five to 10 years to plan to get Northern Kentucky ready for this age wave that is coming.” Usually between 50 and 150 people attend the forums.

NKY defies a good smoking trend By Mark Hansel mhansel@nky.com
The percentage of women who smoke while pregnant has gone up in some Northern Kentucky counties even though the rates are falling across the state and nationwide. Between 2005 and 2009, the percentage of women who smoke while pregnant increased from 34 percent to 39 percent in Grant County and from 18 percent to 19 percent in Boone County. Among the counties served by the Northern Kentucky Independent District Health Department, only Campbell County showed a decrease during the four-year period, from 32 percent to 24 percent. In Kenton County, the percentage remained the same, at 30 percent. The risks of smoking during pregnancy are welldocumented. Premature delivery, low birth weight and higher incidence of sudden infant death syndrome are just some of the dangers linked to smoking
while pregnant. Despite the wealth of information about these risks, 24 percent of expectant mothers in Kentucky still smoke during pregnancy, which is almost three times the national average of 9 percent. Dr. Lynne Saddler, Northern Kentucky District director of health, attributes the high rate, in part, to an inherent acceptance of smoking in the region. “It goes back to the culture of climate that we live in here in Kentucky,” Saddler said. “We know smoking rates are high here and 30 percent of women of childbearing age are smokers. We also know how hard it is to quit smoking, so when you put all of that together, you have what we are dealing with.” Stephanie Vogel, interim health promotion administrator for the health district, said there are other reasons it is difficult for women to quit smoking during pregnancy. “Part of the reason is that there are limited pro-

grams and efforts to be able to help pregnant women quit smoking,” she said. Ideally, Vogel said, women of child-bearing age should focus on quitting before becoming pregnant. That’s just what Amber Lunsford of Dry Ridge did. “It was not only for me so that I would be healthy and live a longer life,” Lunsford said. “I wouldn’t be able to bear knowing that something happened to my baby because of my smoking.” Lunsford, 19, began smoking five years ago and first attempted to quit when she and her husband, Bobby, began to talk about having a child. “The first time it was tough, but the second time was not as hard because I had my family in mind,” Lunsford said. “We’re very religious, so we prayed about it and a week after that I said, ‘That’s it. I’m done.’ ” Lunsford is now 30 weeks into her pregnancy and remains smoke-free. Lunsford’s advice: “Just think about your baby before you smoke that cigarette because everything you do, that baby does.”

Date rape reported at AJ Jolly trails By Chris Mayhew cmayhew@nky.com
ALEXANDRIA — The Campbell County Police Department have an open investigation concerning a reported case of date rape on the nature trails at AJ Jolly Park. Police opened a first degree rape case June 21 when a 20-year-old woman from Ohio reported being sexually assaulted on the nature trails at AJ Jolly Park on April 23. According to the police
report, the woman met a man she had been communicating with through an online dating website for the first time April 23. The man and woman reportedly met for lunch in Highland Heights and afterward traveled together to the nature trails at AJ Jolly Park, according to the report. Once at the park, the man began to kiss the woman and when she pulled away he allegedly forced her to the ground and had intercourse, according to the report.
The case is not under further investigation at this time because the woman who reported the incident has not returned detective’s phone calls, said Lt. Bill Wilson. “This was someone she met through an Internet dating website,” Wilson said. County police have received two other reports of rape so far in 2012, and in both of the victim reported having a relationship with their alleged attacker, he said.

CHRIS MAYHEW/THE COMMUNITY RECORDER Lauren Gosney, a teacher at Dayton High School, was one of the nine teachers the river ecology for educators course. The teachers had spent a week learning about how to test water quality and take lab samples – making a trip to Kentucky's Carter Caves State Resort Park. Covington residents Tom Wherry and Greg Barker paddled in a canoe together for leisure. Wherry said they found out about the paddle through the Licking River Greenway newsletter. "We live near the Licking and we've been wanting to get out on it on a canoe for a long time," Wherry said. Dan Turnwald of Villa Hills steered a canoe with his 10-year-old daughter Grace in front. Turnwald said it was a good excuse to get out and paddle.
"I thought it would be good father-daughter bonding time as well," he said. The goal of the event was to help the public learn more about the river, said Ed Wilcox, a program assistant for NKU's Center for Environmental Education. "Quite often, it seems, a resource like the Licking River is taken for granted,"

WILDER — In an effort to reconnect people with a stretch of water inaccessible in most places except by boat, more than 30 people set out in canoes and kayaks to "Rediscover the Licking " River Saturday, June 30. The inaugural paddle event was organized by the Northern Kentucky University Center for Environmental Studies in association with 10 coordinating groups and agencies including the Licking River Greenways & Trails project. "This is a nice gentle guided paddle," said Steve Kerlin, director of NKU's center for environmental education. "We're going to learn about the river as we go." Kerlin invited participants to quiz the nine teachers in NKU's river ecology for educators course about the river from. The canoe trip was from Frederick's Landing in Wilder to the confluence with the Ohio River and Covington Landing. Along the way teachers and NKU staff helped the paddlers learn about water quality, he said. Participants also learned about the Combined Sewer Overflows (CSO's) that go into the Licking River along the way, Kerlin said. Alexandria resident
The benefits of the paddle likely differ for each person, he said. Some people might experience health benefits from the paddling, others might find artistic inspiration, become aware of a historic incident along the guided paddle, or maybe even become interested in

Bishop Brossart unveils facility plans Sports complex comes second to building addition By Chris Mayhew cmayhew@nky.com
ALEXANDRIA — Bishop Brossart High School’s goal of building a stadium for football and soccer surrounded by a track at Gilbert Ridge Road in Alexandria has to wait until after a $7 million building addition that’s in the works is finished. Principal Richard Stewart and representatives of the capital campaign alumni steering committee met with members of the Class of 2002 Thursday, July 6. It was the first of many meetings with classes to explain how
adding a new chapel, a library/ media center and a theater that seats 400-425 people will enhance the school, Stewart said. The school is hoping to finish the building design and bid the building expansion project out in November for a February groundbreaking, he said. “At this point the news is all good, we’re most of the way home toward our goal,” Stewart said. The school has more than $6.8 million in money and pledges for the building addition, and the idea is to raise more than $7 million, he said. “The more we can get, the more we can do,” he said of the final building addition capital campaign fundraising push. One of the first questions from the alumni audience of was from Kyle Stadtmiller of High-
land Heights. Stadtmiller said his generation is concerned with, and wants the school to start building a sports complex now. The school hopes to use $80,000 from the building addition fundraising to grade the land at Gilbert Ridge Road, Stewart said. The idea is to build 2.5 practice fields including one exclusively for soccer, one for football, and a half-field the two sports can share, he said. That will eliminate the need to practice at Pendery Park, Stewart said. The bigger idea of building a full athletic facility at Gilbert Ridge will require its own capital campaign – and has to wait, he said. The school does not want competing capital campaigns, Stewart said. “In a sense what I tell folks who want to see Gilbert Ridge
worked on is ‘Get your checks into the building quickly,’” Stewart said. “Because the quicker we can finish this building and pay it off the quicker we can start on Gilbert Ridge – which is the next thing.” There are “50 steps” still to take to build a stadium and field, ideally with artificial turf that both soccer and football teams can use, Stewart said. Extensive earth moving and retaining walls will be required at Gilbert Ridge, he said. There is also the possibility the school will need to get approval from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for stream abatement plan for the property, Stewart said. Stadtmiller said many people his age are concerned about making the sports complex happen . Stadtmiller said many of his
friends have 1-year-old children or younger. “So, they’re still in the high school mindset, sports, this is what we did, this is what its about, and they don’t really think about what are their kids going to need when they come through here,” he said. It will be a great step to get the improvements done to the school building and then focus on the sports complex. No matter what, there are some people who want the sports complex first and others who say the building addition has to come first, he said. “But you need everybody on one page to say ‘Alright this what we’re doing, after this is done, this is what we can focus on next,’ Stadtmiller said. “Hopefully that unifies everybody.”

COLD SPRING — Claire Reinert of Cold Spring has engineered success in school on a base of 12 years of perfect attendance. Teachers at Notre Dame Academy named Reinert the “Most Distinguished Graduate” for the Class of 2012. She will study chemical engineering at the University of Kentucky. Reinert started her education without an absence in grades K-8 at St. Joseph School in Cold Spring. “I’ve never missed a day,” Reinert said. “I think it was a lot easier in high school because it was an all girls school and everyone really pushed themselves. The teachers expected everyone to be there, so it wasn’t really hard to not miss any days.” Reinert said she went to school sick a couple of times rather than miss. “I enjoyed school, and I enjoyed learning,” she said. “And I would get really stressed out just knowing that I would actually have to make up work or do something like that.” Taking an accelerated math program in seventh and eighth grade at St. Joseph School fueled her lifelong interest in math and science, she said. “It challenged me, and I liked that,” Reinert said. At Notre Dame Sr. Mary Ethel Parrot opened up the scientific world to her, Reinert said. Reinert said she found she had a passion for physics, chemistry and biology in high school. “My science teacher my freshman year became my mentor for a science program that I continued through the years,” she said. “And I absolutely loved working with her and learning about the innovation that’s involved in engineering.” Reinert has been accepted to study in UK’s Scholars in Engineering And Management (SEAM) Living-Learning Community in the fall. She has narrowed her chemical engineering interests down to clean water projects, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. “I know where I’m going, but I don’t want to know completely,” she said. “I want to figure some of it out along the way.”

Reinert said service is a big part of the Notre Dame experience, and she plans to continue that through a sorority at UK. Every Thursday for the past four years Reinert said she has loved volunteering at the Notre Dame Urban Education Center. “I tutor children who need help with their homework, and we also just play games and talk,” she said. She also volunteered at the Faith Community Pharmacy through Notre Dame during her senior year. Outside of school, Reinert hasn’t missed a step by continuing 16 years of dance lessons at Kaleidoscope Dance Co. in Fort Thomas. In recent years Reinert said she has also taught ballet, tap and jazz steps to younger students. Dee Reinert said her daughter continually impresses her. “She’s just always worked hard,” Dee said. “I’ve seen her stay up until 2 a.m. and 3 a.m. in morning and then set the alarm to get back up at 5 a.m. or 6 a.m. just to sleep a few hours which I think is crazy in high school.” Reinert said she knew her daughter was striving to do her “very, very” best, and has balanced her time well. “I don’t know where she gets the drive from, but she has it,” she said.

Freedom have pair of All-Stars
RED STRIKERS WIN U14 SILVER
By James Weber jweber@nky.com
FLORENCE — The Florence Freedom will have two players starting the second half of the season as Frontier League AllStars in the professional baseball league. The Freedom had three players selected to play the game July 11 at Normal, Ill. Catcher Jim Jacquot and shortstop Junior Arrojo were set to go to the game. The third, local product Chris Curley, began a stint with a new team this week. Curley, the former Beechwood High School standout, was signed by the Chicago White Sox organization late last week. “Obviously we’re extremely proud of Chris,” Freedom General Manager Josh Anderson said. “He’s been unbelievable this year for us and when you put up those kind of numbers and you’re as good a player as Chris is, it’s only a matter of time before a big league club comes and wants to sign you.” Curley led the team in almost every major category and left as one of the league leaders in all three triple-crown categories. In 42 games, Curley hit .356 with 10 home runs and 44 RBI. Playing for an affiliated club is nothing new for Curley as he was with the Atlanta Braves organization from 2009-10. He advanced to high-A Myrtle Beach in 2010 before joining the Freedom in 2011. Curley will be sent to the Kannapolis Intimidators, the South Atlantic League high A affiliate within the White Sox organization. Replacing Curley’s big bat in the lineup will be a key factor for the team in the second half of the year. The All-Star break comes at the exact halfway point of the season. Through 48 games in the 96-game league schedule, Florence is 27-21. Four teams make

Harris hits .299 and Eddie Rodriguez .292. The starting rotation has been stable, with Andres Caceres, Alec Lewis, Sean Gregory, Daniel DeSimone and Maxx Catapano combining to start all but two games for the Freedom. Gregory has the best ERA at 2.96. Following the All-Star Game, Florence headed on a crucial road trip, spanning nine games and about 2,000 miles. In an odd bit of scheduling, Florence will play both St. Louis-area teams, Gateway and River City, but have to sojourn 600 miles to Traverse City, Mich. and back in between. Frontier League commissioner Bill Lee said on the Freedom’s radio broadcast that it was an oversight by the league office. Florence will return home Sunday, July 22 for a three-game series with Lake Erie. Curley was the only player on the team who can appreciate the franchise’s frustrating history. As the Freedom celebrate their 10th season in the Frontier League and eighth in their current stadium, they have yet to enjoy a playoff berth. Several times they have entered August with a fighting chance before fading away.
the playoffs, the two division champions and two teams with the next best records, regardless of division. Florence is five games out of first place in the East Division and one game out of the second wild-card berth. At the halfway point, there is a clear separation of tiers in the league. Six of the14 teams are at least seven games under .500, and seven of the other eight, including the Freedom are between two and 10 games over. East Division leader Traverse City (32-16) has been the best team so far. Among the team’s All-Stars, Junior Arrojo is one of the top defensive shortstops in the league, according to manager Fran Riordan. The leadoff hitter in the order, Arrojo has an onbase percentage of .388 and is a strong leader in the clubhouse. Jacquot has four home runs and 24 RBI but his main asset is his work behind the plate. The former University of Cincinnati standout had two years of affiliated ball experience before coming to the Freedom. He played for the same Kannapolis team that Curley joined last week. Among other standouts so far, utility player Peter Fatse hits .300 with 36 RBI, leading all current Freedom players. David

The twisted politics of outsourcing
We know it’s an election year when people begin twisting simple business concepts for political gain. A candidate challenges a smart business practice with a sentence or two of inflammatory rhetoric. Unfortunately, it takes an explanation to refute the ridiculous point, along with a basic understanding of how the economy works. Businesses don’t bother to respond. Politicians who disagree with the rhetoric aren’t bold enough to speak up. When no one speaks the truth, the false assertion “gets legs” and spreads like a virus. And so it is with “outsourcing,” a top business issue for this election cycle. Outsourcing is immensely painful for anyone who loses a job because of it. But there’s something that hits close to home and which is disrespectful
about attacking companies who outsource. Look at the business landscape in Northern Kentucky. We built Rob Hudson much of our local economy COMMUNITY RECORDER GUEST by welcoming COLUMNIST foreign companies such as Mazak and Toyota to our region. What if the Japanese government had admonished or prevented these companies from “outsourcing” operations to the United States? Mazak and Toyota have touched so many lives and families favorably by deciding to locate in our region. Who are we to demonize home-grown companies who make similar business decisions which touch lives and families in other countries?
Outsourcing is, in fact, a necessary practice to save and grow American jobs in the long run. Our businesses compete around the world and that’s not going to change. Competitors will strive to operate profitably, no matter where they actually produce the goods or services they sell. The businesses which provide their goods and services most efficiently will typically thrive and employ more people. If outsourcing helps reduce costs, it must be considered. The businesses which reach the most profitable markets internationally will typically thrive and employ more people. If outsourcing helps to reach a new market in a foreign country, it must be considered. If the competition is outsourcing, beating an American company with lower prices and reaching new markets, the American business will typically fail and employ no
one. While it really does take more than a sentence to explain why businesses which outsource are not evil, one sentence sums it up. Businesses which do not compete and become profitable cannot grow jobs here or anywhere. I’d rather have a growing corporate headquarters in the U.S., with plants around the world, than no company at all. In the end, there’s only one legitimate way to reduce outsourcing. Our regulatory and business climate must be so attractive that employing more people here will almost always make good business sense. In other words, make this the best place in the world to do business and other countries will be the ones preoccupied with their jobs coming here. Conversely, regulation and high costs of doing business can drive jobs out of the country. When that happens
it’s our fault as a people, not the company’s fault. We should be skeptical about politicians who want more government regulation on businesses, then squawk about outsourcing. They either don’t understand the economy or they’re betting that the American people won’t figure it out. For the candidates who understand outsourcing, it’s time to start giving the American people some credit and some information. The truth needs to be told, even if it’s perceived as risky and even if it doesn’t fit nicely into a sound bite for cable news.

Kentucky needs a fairer tax system On July 24, Governor Beshear’s Blue Ribbon Commission on Tax Reform will hold a hearing at Northern Kentucky University to hear ideas from the public for reforming Kentucky’s outmoded tax structure. Kentucky’s tax system needs to be modernized. Built upon obsolete realities and principles, it is failing to serve our populace in a rapidly changing economy. One of the major problems with our tax system is that it is unfair: it taxes lower-income people at a higher rate than upper-income people. In 2007 the lowest 20 percent income group paid 9.4 percent of their income in taxes; lower and middle income taxpayers paid 10.8 percent; while the top 5 percent of earners paid 7.4 percent and the top 1 percent paid only 6.1 percent (Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy). This is not a fair distribution of the overall
tax burden. What explains this injustice? Several factors. Our income tax was established in 1936. By 1950 its graduated Col Owens rate structure COMMUNITY topped out at 6 RECORDER GUEST COLUMNIST percent for all incomes over $8,000, which was a substantial income at the time. There has been only modest tweaking since. Thus, our income tax is essentially a flat tax. Because its rate structure is not more progressive to reflect modern income levels resulting from inflation, growth, and changing compensation trends, it has a built in structural bias that benefits higher income taxpayers. Our sales tax is also problem-
atic, but in a different way. The sales tax base, those elements of economic activity that are subject to the tax, is comprised almost exclusively of goods, the basis of most economic transactions when the tax was established. As the global economy has evolved, resulting in much manufacturing moving overseas, there has been a shift in our economic activity from the production of goods to the provision of services. But there has not been an accompanying shift in our sales tax base to include more services. Thus, the sales tax has also become increasingly unfair. A significant volume of economic transactions escape taxation, in particular those that benefit higher income taxpayers. For example, Kentucky taxes utilities more than any other service. This disproportionately
impacts lower income people, who have little choice in consuming utility services, whereas personal and business services that benefit primarily higher income persons escape taxation. Tax expenditures, or tax exemptions and/or loopholes, that benefit businesses and wealthy investors, also have an unfair impact on the overall tax distribution. While enacted to achieve specific economic objectives, such as job creation – an uncertain outcome, as these activities and their results are often not transparent – they reduce the tax burden on those most able to pay. A final consideration regarding unfairness is the practical result of an inverted tax burden. Lower income taxpayers tend to spend most or all of their incomes on goods and services. In doing so, they obtain the things they need while adding to over-
all economic activity in a positive way. The more heavily they are taxed, as compared to higher income taxpayers who do not spend all their earnings, both lower income taxpayers and the overall economy suffer. Kentucky needs to modernize its tax structure. Governor Beshear has launched this process as a beginning for accomplishing this important objective. It is important that Kentucky residents inform themselves about these issues and participate in this process. It has the potential to contribute substantially to our common good, our common wealth. Col Owens, of Fort Mitchell, is chair of the Tax Modernization Committee of the Women’s Network Commonwealth Institute on Policy Studies and Civic Engagement. Owens chairs the Kenton County Democratic Party.
A journey filled with ups and downs The past few weeks have been full of ups and downs. But, fortunately mostly ups. We made it all the way to Santa Fe, N.M., and also more than 2,000 miles. Recently, the weather has switched to a more dry heat but the temperJessie Modrall atures are increased, 110 COMMUNITY RECORDER GUEST degrees is not COLUMNIST out of the realm of possibilities. But, we take it all in stride and stop at almost every place we spot with air conditioning. We are getting to a part of the country with very little civilization. Some days it is not unusual for the host where we are going to be the only building we see for 90 miles. The past 2,000 miles definitely left my bike a little worse for the wear so the past 400 miles or so have been tough. Lot of cities dot have bike shops and many are not open when we arrive in town since we often arrive late. One day I got eight flats. Just to put that in perspective, many people have only gotten one flat

Jam, poached peaches good summer recipes
Rita shares a reader's recipe for using all those summer peaches. THANKS TO RITA HEIKENFELD Last time I made this I added lemon juice and it gave it a nice zing. 2 cups berries 1 cup cold water 1-2 tablespoons lemon juice 3 oz. sugar-free berry gelatin
Crush berries in saucepan. Add water, juice and gelatin and mix. Over medium heat, bring to boiling, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and simmer a couple of minutes. Pour into jars, cool and cap. Store in refrigerator for two weeks or
frozen two months.
GREYHOUND TAVERN’S HOUSE DRESSING INGREDIENTS
Susan B. really wanted this recipe, and I know the recipe is proprietary, as it is hugely popular for this northern Kentucky restaurant. Greyhound is celebrating 25 years of good food and fellowship. So no, I don’t have the recipe, but here’s the ingredients (and I can’t tell you how I came to know), so let’s see if one of our readers can figure this out: seedless cucum-
4 lbs. peaches 2½ cups sugar 1 vanilla bean, split 4 cups water ¾ cup bourbon
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, prepare an ice water bath. Cut a small X into bottom of each peach. Boil peaches for 1 minute. Transfer to ice water bath. Let cool slightly. Peel, pit and cut into ¾-inch wedges. Bring water, sugar and vanilla to boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Add peaches and bourbon. Simmer until peaches are tender, but still hold their shape, 5-7 minutes. Transfer to large bowl using slotted spoon. Cook syrup over medium heat until reduced by half, about 15 minutes. Discard vanilla

The Kentucky Heritage Land Conservation Fund is reissuing three past nature license plates: the bobcat on a rhododendron branch, the Viceroy butterfly perched on a goldenrod stem, and the cardinal landing on a Kentucky Coffeetree branch. These plates are available for purchase. If you are registering a new or out-of-state vehicle in Kentucky for the first time, you can request a nature license plate from your county clerk or motor vehicle dealer. If you lease in Kentucky, you can offer the leasing company a check for the extra charge to get the nature license plate. If you are converting from a regular plate, turn in your plate to your county
clerk and you will be given credit for the months remaining on your decal. When you purchase one of these plates for your car or truck, the extra $10 fee is used to purchase important natural lands, including state parks, wildlife management areas, and nature preserves. Since 1995, the money raised from these plates has helped purchase and protect more than 77,000 acres in 62 counties. Cities, counties, universities, conservation districts and other eligible agencies have been awarded grants to purchase and manage significant properties. The Heritage Land Board can approve funding for properties that meet these criteria: » Natural areas that possess unique features
such as habitat for rare and endangered species. » Areas important to migratory birds. » Areas that perform important natural functions that are subject to alteration or loss. » Areas to be preserved in their natural state for public use, outdoor recreation and education. For a look at the new plates, a listing of purchased properties and other information, visit the Kentucky Heritage Land

READERS ON VACATION
Chloe Clements, 7, vacationed with Shannon Daniels, both of Fort Thomas, in Cocoa Beach, Fla. THANKS TO
Our farmer friends Bob and Bert Villing, who live down the road, just canned over 20 pints of carrots from their garden. As for me, I grow just enough for the kids to enjoy pulling up. That translates into carrots for several dinners, but not near enough to preserve. Here’s an easy way to roast carrots in the oven, not the prettiest kid on the block, but so delicious. Carrots are chock full of beta-carotene, which converts to vitamin A in the body and is good for our eyes. Carrots may help lower cholesterol, prevent heart attacks and certain cancers. Now in order to make the beta-carotene do all these good things, carrots need a little fat. So I rub them with olive oil before roasting.

I’ve had this in my files for a long time and, with local peaches coming in, it’s a good one to share. From Pat Kellison, who said: “I have made a lot of peach recipes, but none comes near this one for over-the-top deliciousness.” Pat serves it over peach ice cream.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Rub with olive oil and season to taste. Lay in single layer on sprayed cookie sheet. Roast until tender and slightly wrinkled. Trim leafy tops. When you buy carrots with green tops attached, trim them off before storing. Otherwise, those leafy tops act like sponges, sucking out the vitamins and moisture.

I’ve always said I’ll take hot weather over cold, but this week may make me change my mind. It’s 103 degrees outside. I’m making sun-cooked strawberry preserves and strawberry roll-ups, which usually take up to four days to “cook” in the sun. I’m thinking two days will do it. I’ll share those recipes soon. Meanwhile, stay hydrated. Make sure kids and older folks drink plenty of water. Kids’ bodRita ies take Heikenfeld longer to RITA’S KITCHEN adjust to heat and humidity. They produce more body heat and don’t sweat as much as adults do at the same exertion level. So in hot weather, kids are at increased risk for dehydration.

When visiting a market take time to enjoy the sights, colors, and shapes. » Children may learn to recognize colors and shapes and to count while at the market. » Farmers are generous and resilient. They grow enough foods for their families and to share with us. They are resilient as they somehow manage to produce foods during droughts, rain storms, and other weather-related challenges. » Farming extends beyond fruits and vegetables. Many markets also sell meats, flowers, cheeses, and breads; all
products made from items originating on a farm. » When talking with producers you may learn how they manage their farms to grow products to minimize the effect on the soil and land. After all, they most likely want to grow more products next year. » You can learn about the many hours spent year round on farming. Even when crops aren’t in the ground there is still work to be done. It might be planning the crop, caring for the equipment, or attending programs to improve knowledge, but there is always something to be done on a farm. I encourage you to visit a local farmers market. Take some time, if the market isn’t too busy, to visit with the vendors. Learn their story. Ask about the products. Discover the great advantages of purchasing from people who live just down the road!

The average customer bill* will be adjusted approximately 4.6 cents per day, or $1.37 per month, or $4.10 per quarter from $122.73 per quarter to $126.83 per quarter, for a 3.34% adjustment. The second adjustment will become effective on January 1, 2014, or a date approved by the Commission. The average customer bill will be adjusted approximately 4.3 cents per day, or $1.28 per month, or $3.84 per quarter from $126.83 to $130.67, for a 3.03% adjustment.

Overcoming tomato maladies and deformities Question: I got my tomatoes planted early, and I’ve kept them fertilized, but now they look rough, cracked and deformed, and some are black on the bottom. What did I do wrong? Answer: Blossom-end rot results from low fruit calcium at the blossom end, or the bottom of the fruit. It is caused Mike by condiKlahr tions of water HORTICULTURE CONCERNS stress, root damage, excessive nitrogen, and high soil levels of potassium and sodium. A leathery-brown to black area forms at the base of the fruit; then disease organisms enter and initiate decay. Largersize tomatoes and some varieties are more susceptible to blossom-end rot. A number of cultural techniques will prevent this disorder. Maintain uniform moisture throughout the growing season by watering and using black plastic or organic mulch such as straw or grass clippings around the plants. With some tomato varieties, just 30 minutes of water stress causes slight plant wilting and can initiate cell breakdown in the fruit blossom ends. Don’t use excessive nitrogen fertilizer, especially the ammonium nitrate form, because this leads to overly vigorous plants with smaller root systems to absorb water and nutrients. This condition makes tomato plants more prone to water stress. If a soil test shows that the soil has a low pH, below 6.5, use calcium nitrate as a source of nitrogen to keep from reducing the soil pH. To increase calcium availability to tomato plants, maintain a slightly acid soil pH of 6.5 to 6.8. Research shows that foliar calcium applications don’t effectively reduce blossom-end rot. Since little or no calcium moves from

leaves to the fruit, the foliar-applied calcium isn’t absorbed through the fruit skin. Many of the same cultural practices to control blossom-end rot will also lessen the chances of tomatoes cracking. Thus you need to water frequently and use mulch to prevent wide fluctuations in soil moisture and temperature. Carefully use nitrogen fertilizer to avoid excessively vigorous plant growth. Finally, follow a good nutritional and pesticide spray program to maintain good plant foliage. Incidences of offshaped, rough and scarred tomatoes are related to the variety you plant. Generally, varieties that produce large fruit have more of these problems. Some heirloom varieties also are more susceptible. One good crack-resistant heirloom tomato that is very large and very sweet is Giant Belgium. Nitrogen over-fertilization sometimes leads to mis-shapen fruits. Home gardeners can lessen these problems by not planting too early, and by selecting varieties less prone to the disorders. Varieties that resist cracking include Mountain Spring, Mountain Crest, Sun Leaper, Mountain Fresh Plus, Sunguard, Floralina, Carolina Gold and Delicious.
